Which one to use

Use SimpleSwap if you want a fixed rate, you want a phone app or you need a long-tail token that SwapRocket does not list.

Use SwapRocket if you want to swap one coin for another with no account, no email and no wallet connection, and a floating rate suits you. Standard swaps need no KYC; the licensed liquidity provider that executes the swap screens transactions and can, rarely, hold a flagged one and ask for verification. A typical swap takes 5 to 30 minutes, set mostly by how fast your deposit confirms. Common routes are the BTC to XMR exchange, the ETH to USDT exchange and every other exchange pair.

Whichever you pick, compare the amount you would receive for your own pair and size rather than a headline fee, and read how identity checks work in the guide to no-KYC crypto exchanges.

Does SwapRocket require KYC?

No KYC for standard swaps. The licensed liquidity provider that executes the swap screens transactions and can, rarely, hold a flagged one and ask for verification.

Which is cheaper, SwapRocket or SimpleSwap?

Neither publishes one fee that holds for every pair, so compare the result: enter the same pair and amount on both and look at what you would receive.

When is SimpleSwap the better choice?

Choose SimpleSwap if you want a fixed rate, you want a phone app or you need a long-tail token that SwapRocket does not list. Choose SwapRocket if you want a crypto-to-crypto swap with no account and are comfortable with a floating rate.
